Committed to PEOPLE'S RIGHT TO KNOW Vol. 5 Num 937 Wed. January 17, 2007       Star City Mindless and Ugly The Dhaka City Corporation (DCC) has over the last few years rented out every nook and corner of the city roads and intersections for advertisements. Installation of these large billboards does not require much space on the ground as they are enacted on top of hollow steel poles. Thousands of similar billboards have been secretly authorised by the DCC. Devoid of the slightest aesthetic sense, this billboard was built recently on the culvert near the Gulshan Shooting Club. The picture was taken yesterday by our staff photographer Syed Zakir Hossain. PHOTO: Syed Zakir Hossain
